Synopsis

Many companies encourage their managers to use work itself as a medium for learning and development. Highly effective work-based activities and experiences can be devised and managers can organize and direct their own develoment using the methods which suit their particular learning needs. In this kind of self-managed development, an individual manager exploits the resources, expertise and opportunities offered by the workplace to tackle his or her individual learning needs. Such development is significantly different from trainer-led learning and to undertake it, the learner has to explore a different world, with new approahches and specialized "enabling skills". This self-development programme should help even experienced managers acquire these essential new skills.
